    The Old German man I worked for when I was a Senior in High School
    used a money clip.
    I use one for years. And just started folding my money and carrying it in my left front pocket. Alone with my drivers license and credit cards. And CHL permit.

    I carry my IPhone in a holder that is attached to my belt. Don't like a big a$$ phone or a phone stuck in my back pocket.
    So where and how do you carry your Kimber?

    My guess is your feeding issue is mag related since it did it once,

    Mag springs are tight to start out, I'd load them up full count
    and let them sit a week it will make a difference.

    Kimbers are nice, they have their issues, just like any gun
    manufacturer, but the FTF is most likely mag related.

    Grease the rails up good, it's not a plasti-gun, don't over
    do it but grease is your friend on a tight new firearm.

    FLHT, I have a sig P220, in SAO it's a carry, shorter barrel
    full grip, which I like. HK, Sig both have DA/SA 45's.

    Wait till you replace that old warn out Ipone. The new ones ain't that small
    I used to think the Samsung S5 was a Big Phone till I had it for a year.
    No way would I ever want to stare at a phone as small as the old Iphone.

    You are runnning from what you haven't had.
    Its like a Big screen TV. Until you get one. The bigger the better.
    They are easier to see, easier to use.

    But in your case , Fight it man, Fight it.

    You can get a Planatronics M55 where if you want to talk on the phone, you got 11 hours of talk time. never have to take yer phone off yer side.

    My OL has one I got her at Best Buy. She fought me till she got one.
    Now she can't live without the planatronics m55.

    No thanks I don't want nothing hanging off my ear including a ear ring.

    We have an older Toshiba 50 inch. It's like a projection TV but not as its digital must have had it now for close to 20 years. Dang thing cost us $1800.00 when we bought it. Gonna get all the use out of it I can. Has a great screen and perfect picture. Not gonna get a new one or a new phone anytime soon.

    Used to have a Rear Projection TV, Think it was a Sony, Cant remember.
    It started acting up.
    Went to Walmart and got a Vizio 55" LED TV. Got a wall bracket.
    TV cost 1500.00
    My wife at 1st said it was tooo Big.
    Got a 42" plazma on the dresser in the Bedroom.
    OL said I can watch that and not even put my glasses on.

    If the one in the living room goes out.
    I want a 65 or 70" Samsung.
    The bigger the better.

    Was looking at them at Best Buy and Sams club.
    I like watching TV.

    Won't have a TV in the bedroom. That place is reserved for sleeping or sex.

    If our TV goes out I'll get a different kind but not until this one gives up the ghost.

    The New LED TV is super nice. My OL likes watching it too.
    We can't live without our TV.

    I had a SONY Trinitron flat screen (tube) TV I think it was a 42". It must have weighed over 100 pounds, a real monster. Worked fine and had a great picture quality but I got sick and tired of the wide screen pictures shrinking the overall size down to fit. Everything seems to have gone over to widescreen. Couldn't see anything clearly like baseball, football or NASCAR. So I bit the bullet last year and got a flat panel LED smart azz TV. Much nicer now. BUT, what the hell am I gonna do with the SONY TV? I don't have a boat anymore so I can't use it as an avchor?!?!?

    Go to Best Buy now and find a chair and remote control, Sit down and watch the TV's and see the difference in the Old TV's and the new TV.
    Don't take yer wife. So you don't get rushed.
    Take yer time.
    Let me know what you found out.

    Was just measuring our TV it's a 55 inch, big enough. Wife said what you doing that for told her bragging rights with Cardboard. She said if we were to get one that hangs on the wall then there would be no place for the snakes to crawl up inside. Don't ask cause it really happend and that projection put the image of that snake on the screen only larger and in green and red color. :rolleyes: :p

    When its up on the wall you don't look down at it.
    its more like sittin back and looking up at it.
    Neighbor came over and sat down on the couch. Looked at my TV on the wall with lag bolts holdin it to the 2x4's.
    Asked if I could come over to his house next door and put it on top of a cabinet he has.
    Now he can sit in his Lazy boy and lean back and look it it.
    Or lay on the couch and watch it.

    Don't understand what braggin rights yer talking about.
    I got stuff for convience and easy to use.

    I watch a lot of TV and news.
    And fishing shows.

    Ours sits up on a pedestal and we can sit in our recliners and look straight at it. Only problem right now is the sun. We got so much sun coming through the big windows in the front that it makes it hard to see so yea have to close the drapes to watch TV in the day time. Me I'm studding for a test and the TV is off but the sun is hitting the pages I'm trying to read and hard to see them but the sun sure feels good.
